The Unquenchable Light Within: A Restorative Yoga and Meditation Workshop (The Yoga Collaborative, North Falmouth)

The Unquenchable Light Within is a restorative yoga and meditation workshop on a Sunday afternoon at The Yoga Collaborative in North Falmouth, Massachusetts, on Cape Cod. It is led by yoga and meditation teacher Elaine Cody with spiritual director Dan Burns. It suits anyone who wants to slow down in the long nights of the year and spend a quiet, candlelit afternoon in gentle movement, deep rest and meditation.

What to Expect

The workshop takes place as the winter solstice approaches, and the season shapes the whole session. Long nights invite us to look within, and resting deeply in the quiet lets us listen more closely to our hopes and longings. Together you enter the stillness and darkness of this turning point in the year and receive what it offers.

The session runs from 3 to 4:30 in the afternoon, about ninety minutes. It is candlelit and combines gentle yoga, deep rest and meditation. The aim is to reconnect with the unquenchable light and truth within your own heart, without effort or performance.
